Still using the Sure Lock? I saw you made the switch to the IQ Nano and curious if you stuck with that. Sure Lock has been rolling pretty good for me of late, but they changed the oil pattern and that's helped.

Another hohum night.
218/209/209 = 636. Lanes were super oily. When you're using one of the baddest balls on the planet, and throw frozen ropes from the corner to the pocket, you're not in for a great night. Games 2 and 3 could have been 240's had I not tanked the tenth in both games. Average stays 209.

And yet another less-than average night.
196/191/248 = 635. 14 9 counts on the night (8 in the first game). Think I left every pin but the 1 and 3. The only thing that broke up the 9-count fest was a pocket 7-10. Not sure what I did right in the last game, other than maybe it was a blind squirrel/nut thing. Can't seem to climb above a 209 average. This was one of those nights where everything felt right, everything looked like it hit well, and nothing seemed to work.

Apparently spending two days in jury duty is good for the soul.
236/379/223 = 738
Couldn't miss. The only mar on the night was I whiffed a ten pin to start the third game, ending a chance at 30 clean. On of the few nights this year where everything felt good. Average up to 211.

Fun was to be had by all!
266/245/246 = 757. Only stumbles on the night were a nasty pocket 7-10, and a whiff on a 7 pin. Took all three points, both brackets, and second in doubles. Accumulative 1495 for the past two weeks. Not sure how long this'll last, but I'm not looking a gift horse in the mouth. Average now 213.
